    I have put the snaps on wrong before. I use a wood burning tool to heat and melt the center post on the snaps and they come off very easy. Just pull them apart and replace the snaps.

      Ahh, I wish I'd thought of that earlier. I used a hammer to remove the snaps, and split the vinyl 😆

    Hi Christine. Thank you for this tutorial. I've been wanting to make a credit card wallet for my husband but with 6 card slots. I tried to make the whole thing in vinyl but becomes too bulky so was thinking of having the folds/slots in material with just the outer in vinyl. Could you give me a tutorial in how to do this? Thank you. PS. I am in South Africa and find your tutorials the best. Your detailed instructions are awesome. ❤

What I need help with is how to make the cover, with Velcro or snap. These little snaps on the case open when it’s in purse and all the pills fall out. Please advice! Thanking you in advance!

      I make tampon pouches very similar for my homeless packs and they are cotton, I interface and sew my pieces together right sides together her b4 I construct, so they can be sewn up exactly the way the vinyl ones can when I use my swatches,I don't see why this couldn't be done the same way.

    Hi Christine, thank you for yet another handy tutorial. I think these would also make a lovely way of giving a gift voucher.
    I have a request: could you show how to chart a pattern for a cup holder? My daughter has a reusable Starbucks coffee cup, no handle, just sloping sides. And she wants me to make a holder....
    I would also like your opinion on something, I make bags and use my own labels. But sometimes I get sent fabric to make a custom bag. Should I still put my label on? What do you think?
    I love your videos, thank you for all the work you put into them.
    Happy stitching, Diane

      Hi Diane, I've added the cup holder to my list. I'd still put a label on custom jobs, but depending on the label, I'd probably put it on the inside just in case the client prefers that it's not seen. 😀
